Migrant Justice Edinburgh's Regenerative Futures Fund success
The motion
That the Parliament congratulates Migrant Justice Edinburgh (MJE) for being one of the 11 projects selected by the Regenerative Futures Fund Residents’ Panel, thereby successfully securing long-term funding for the next 10 years; understands that this will enable the grassroots collective of Edinburgh-based organisations to continue what it sees as their important work in ensuring that migrant voices are central to ongoing conversations about climate justice, just transition, racial justice and anti-poverty work in the city; celebrates that this funding will also enable the development of other work, including building solidarity, organising and taking collective action among migrants across the city on issues that affect them, and thanks the panel for recognising the importance of long-term funding for grassroots initiatives as well as the three Edinburgh-based organisations, Citizens Rights Project, The Workers Observatory and Empowering Multicultural Communities Alliance, for forming MJE and developing such impactful migrant-led initiatives.
